Great location close to many state parks and hiking trails. Loved watching the deer off the back balcony and listening to all the birds.
It was quiet and away from traffic. Very peaceful! Cozy, comfy like home!

quick getaway
We did a quick get away for the weekend. The cabin was perfect for my husband and I. There were deer and squirrels all around. We had contact with the owner and he was great.
The pics dont it justice. It was more than I'd wish for. The deck showed off a wooded area teaming with deers and colorful birds. So peaceful! Great hot tub.

A Lovely Get-a-Way in the Woods
Tom was a most gracious host! He provided great information on the area and activities and went out of his way to ensure all our needs were met. His property is a perfect weekend retreat, with little touches, that made it extra special. The people in the area were very welcoming, too! Check out the donation-based full buffet breakfast on Sat mornings from 8:30-10 AM at Eagle Point Lodge, just around the corner. Friendly folks, and a great way to start your day exploring all the state parks! Again, Tom was one of the best hosts we've encountered at VRBO!

Treehouse of Fun
The house was great. Nestled at the end of the road back yard in the woods. Lots of fire pits and even a hot tub. I would recommend this property.

Overall good
The cabin was nicely decorated with quality sheets and towels. Liked the use of antique doors and door knobs. The kitchen had a few extras like some basic spices in the cupboard and condiments in the fridge. Nice deck and pretty woods at the rear of the cabin. Spare dog bowls if you bring a furry friend but forget your bowls. Only drawback really was that the twin(?) size air mattress was not really big enough for a tallish adult (5'11"). We had booked over a year in advance to come for the total eclipse and the sleeping accommodations had changed in that time. The bed itself was great. So currently sleeps 3 maybe 4 if two of the four are kids.

Host very responsive
Nice place smaller than expected. Good for our short 2 night stay and located close to hiking and nature. Bathroom is small and kitchen doesn’t have much counter space. Would be important to me if we stayed longer. Hot tub is located on lower level right outside the other rental so if it’s occupied you won’t have privacy. We took our pet who managed the stairs but it would not be good for a senior pet or person with limited mobility.

Perfect For Fishing Lake of Egypt
Minutes from lake of Egypt launch, cheaper than a hotel, cleaner and offers more than a hotel. Worked perfect for son and I. Owner responds very quickly to questions. Staying here two weekends in a row.

Hiking trip
Spent a long weekend away with daughters on a hiking trip to Garden of the Gods and Ferne Clyffe Park. The cabin was perfect for what we needed. A little bit muddy because of construction/rain. But the deck over looking the backyard was very relaxing!
